The Protectorate of Zigamorph is a gargantuan, cultured nation, ruled by He with wobbly chin with an even hand, and notable for its pith helmet sales, sprawling nuclear power plants, and irreverence towards religion. The compassionate, cheerful population of 41.917 billion Zigamorphians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Education, Social Policy, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of ThunderDome. The average income tax rate is 98.2%.

The frighteningly efficient Zigamorphian economy, worth a remarkable 7,892 trillion boiled eggs a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Information Technology industry, with major contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is an impressive 188,297 boiled eggs, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Politicians can't accept birthday presents from their own children, newlywed misogynists complain about their wives keeping their maiden names, hay has been added to school cafeteria menus, and on-call doctors who check their pagers during movies are banned from cinemas for life. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Zigamorph's national animal is the One legged Giraffe, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Zigamorph is ranked 2,891^st in the world and 126^th in Osiris for Lowest Crime Rates, with 131.62 law-abiding acts per hour.
